Pages: 114 - 117
Macrovasculature and microvasculature are interrelated, and may influence each other. Microvascular structure is not only the site of vascular resistance but probably also the origin of most of the wave reflections generating increased central systolic blood pressure. Some index of large artery stiffness...
